no, unless there's something wrong with your bearings too. just replace the rotor and the pads and you'll be fine.

Most imports are not like the american trucks and all where you have to remove the bearings to swap rotors. These cars have it basically setup as sealed assembly and it shouldn't really ever need to be replaced / greased.

You can't, as the bearings are sealed units. It is totally unecessary and impossible.
